从localhost发送电子邮件？

Question

im kinda stuck, i have read some threads where they use google smtp to send mails from localhost. Im using xampp right now and im trying to use google smtp but it doesn't work what have i done wrong ?

Warning: mail(): Failed to connect to mailserver at "localhost" port 25, verify your "SMTP" and "smtp_port" setting in php.ini or use ini_set() in C:\page.php on line 48

My Code in php.ini:

sendmail_from = T***@gmail.com
Gmail SMTP server address: smtp.gmail.com
Gmail SMTP user name: T***@gmail.com
Gmail SMTP password: ****
Gmail SMTP port: 465
Gmail SMTP TLS/SSL required: yes

Answer 1

You have to set the SMTP-Server, Port and authentication credentials in your php.ini.

But for this it's much easier to use the wonderful PHPMailer class.

It's very easy to implement and to use.

You can easily send complex emails (HTML, Attachments) and it has a good support for external SMTP server, including e.g. encryption.

Just take a look at the examples in the "examples" folder or scroll down at the linked page where is an example using SMTP auth in the first code-block.
